App keeps on stopping

[harishbewe]

The app worked fine for some time and suddenly it can't be opened and everyone getting error that it's getting stopped. What might be the error?

I wanted to use this app and I try the backup services that are a key feature for me. I got the same error.

Same issue here. And I don't have a fresh backup, so it's kinda urgent for me.

@AndreAle94 would you prioritize this bug fix, please?

[AndreAle94]

Hi all, the issue reported by @tamas646 seems related to the current implementation of SAF (Storage Access Framework) backend that needs a rework. I don't see any logs attached by @harishbewe but it could be the same issue if the app crashes immediately as soon as you open it. Unfortunately, I don't have time to look into this and work on a fix, but I think it could be a good task in case someone would like to become familiar with the code @(Mattrazol).

As a quick workaround, in case your device is rooted, you could disable the auto-backup feature manually in /data/data/com.oriondev.moneywallet/shared_prefs/backend_preferences.xml as follow:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<map>
  [...]
  <set name="auto_backup_enabled_services">
    <string>storage_access_framework</string> <-- remove this line
    [...]
  </set>
  [...]
</map>

That worked. Thank's a lot. 🥳

For anyone else running into this problem without a rooted Android device - I was able to edit the above-mentioned configuration file using AndroidBackupExtractor, following these steps:

1. adb backup -f backup.ab com.oriondev.moneywallet
2. java -jar abe.jar unpack backup.ab backup.tar
3. tar tf backup.tar > package.list
4. edit the file apps/com.oriondev.moneywallet/sp/backend_preferences.xml as suggested above
5. tar cf restore.tar -T package.list
6. java -jar abe.jar pack restore.tar restore.ab
7. adb restore restore.ab
